LGBT Ugandans Face Ongoing Persecution Since Passage of Anti-Homosexuality Bill
April 18, 2014 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Jason Rahlan, Press Secretary, Global.
Earlier this year, Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni was widely criticized by the international community for signing into law a bigoted and archaic piece of anti-LGBT legislation that made "aggravated homosexuality" a charge that carries a sentence of up to life in prison if convicted. Similar to last year's Russian law that prohibits "homosexual propaganda," this legislation also made it criminal for any individual or corporation to "promote" homosexuality. This new law has had a chilling effect for millions of LGBT Ugandans as reports have emerged about new arrest attempts against activists and some citizens awaiting trial for alleged "crimes."
Immediately following the law's enactment--which was "celebrated" by Museveni with a five-hour ceremony in Uganda's capital, Kampala--reports surfaced of LGBT citizens attempting suicide for fear of "being hunted down", and a local tabloid published a story outing what it alleged were Uganda's "top 200 homosexuals."
In March, LGBT activists were arrested and claimed to be beaten, tortured and threatened with death by Ugandan officials while in custody. In April, the offices of the Makerere University Walter Reed Project, which offered HIV/AIDS treatment to LGBT citizens and is funded in part by the United States government, was raided by police forces. Some of its employees were arrested, and the project had to temporarily suspend activities following the raid. Meanwhile, activists around the world are seeking funding to help LGBT Ugandans flee their homeland and seek asylum in more accepting countries following a reported increase in police raids and arrest attempts against activists.
And this week, the trial against two LGBT Ugandans who were arrested late last year for engaging in acts that were "against the order of nature" was greenlighted to begin on May 7. Although they are charged with breaking a law that existed prior to the new "Anti-Homosexuality" bill enacted in February, they too could face up to life in prison.
We reiterate our condemnation of hateful and destructive laws such as these, and we call on the United States government and the international community to continue to exert pressure on the Ugandan government to prevent this type of anti-LGBT persecution from taking place.

The only way I know of is to cut it back quite hard. You will temporarily lose the height of course, but hard pruning is always followed by much stronger growth and you'll end up with a much better balanced hedge.
Lilyrosemary, I would use muck where you are planting spuds and mushroom compost (which contains lime) where you are planting brassicas or root crops like carrots and everything else. Spuds get scab if lime is added but it helps protect brassicas from diseases like club root. Carrots and parsnips will fork if grown in freshly manured ground. Next year, change which area you grow these three rough groups of veg in (called crop rotation) and you'll keep the soil (and everything else) nicely balanced.
Vine weevils are incredibly good climbers (unfortunately!) Lyn.
Wren for me. Plenty of them about but you hardly ever notice them (just like ordinary, good-hearted British people!)
To minimise space taken, you could perhaps take cuttings from some of the larger tubers when they start sprouting and grow those on in pots to take with you. Some of my tubers (from 'giant hybrids') would need 10 inch or larger pots and would be a nightmare to move when growing - those plants get to 6 feet tall and are very brittle.
I think in the case of Robins who were themselves born in a domestic garden, they will quite happily nest in close proximity to humans and be unlikely to abandon the nest as long as disturbance is kept to a similar level to how is is currently. I have been at my present location for about 30 years and the Robins here now come within inches when I'm working in the garden. If I were in a similar situation to lostinglass, I would probably put up a Robin-type nesting box just outside the window they are using, but if they decided to continue with the nest inside, would just let them get on with it.
Coppiced a hazel today so have plenty of bean poles for later in the year. Sowed more seeds in the GH and did a bit more tidying up of last year's perennials. Spring is definitely here judging by all the new growth I spotted but that wind is still on the chilly side!
They go semi-dormant in the summer, so I would carry on letting it do it's thing (the leaves are feeding the corm at the moment) and reduce watering in late spring/early summer. Many or most of the leaves will die back and you can remove those as they die. In about September, give it a good watering (stand it in a bowl of water for 30 minutes) and then don't water it again until new growth starts. Once it is growing well, you should water and feed it (eg with baby bio) normally, then you should get flowers for about 3 months over the winter. I always aim to have mine in full bloom at Christmas.
They are easy to grow from seed, but it does take a couple of years before they are big enough to flower.
Is that area raised, as in a mound or a bank? If so, it could well be voles (Gemma's typo made me read 'wolves' - then you would be in trouble!)
Cleared a large raised planter of strawberry plants which have had their day, replaced the top 1/4 (about 200l) of soil in there with home made compost and used it as a new home for 5 honeyberries ((Lonicera caerulea) which have been growing in 10" pots for a couple of years. Sowed leek seeds and planted onion sets which arrived this morning into modules in the GH, did some weeding and a bit of pottering but wind was a bit too cold for being outside without doing something active!

CG: STAGE TUBE: R.Evolución Latina's DARE TO GO BEYOND Children's Arts Camp FinaleJuly 20, 2012 - by NYC News Desk
The 5th Annual "Dare to Go Beyond" Children's Performing Arts Camp, hosted by R.Evolución Latina, concluded today, July 20, with an exciting song and dance extravaganza in partnership with "Step Up Revolution," the major dance motion picture that opens July 27, 2012 nationwide. The film, which highlights elaborate, cutting-edge flash mobs with a message, aligns with R.Evolución Latina messaging and goals of empowering Hispanic youth to make a difference through the arts. Watch a video from the finale performance below!
Nearly 200 students from schools and community centers citywide convened today at the legendary Roseland Ballroom to learn choreography, rehearse, work with directors and video crews, and ultimately performed a full dance-sequence from the film for the cameras. The theme of the event was "Imagination," consistent with the theme of the one-week educational program.
The performance was recorded outdoors, flash mob-style, at 1:15pm, in front of the Roseland, located at 239 W. 52nd Street, between Broadway and Eight Avenue. The NYPD briefly closed the street for the celebration.
R.Evolución Latina's 5th Annual "Dare to Go Beyond" Children's Performing Arts Camp is a 5-day educational program for children ages 7 to 17, made possible with support from the Herman Goldman Foundation. Nearly 30 Broadway performers and International Artists donated their time as volunteer instructors. The Camp held at Pearl Studios kicked off last Monday with a special visit and surprise performance by child actors Nia Ashleigh, Imani Dia Smith, and Judah Bellamy, who currently star in the Broadway production of The Lion King.
For more information about the "Dare to Go Beyond" Children's Performing Arts Camp, and all of R.Evolución Latina's upcoming productions, and educational programs, the public can visit www.revolucionlatina.org. The organization can also be followed on Facebook: revlatina, or Twitter: revlatina.

The Canterbury Choral Society, in conjunction with the Oklahoma City Philharmonic, gave a stirring performance of "Ein deutches Requeim (A German Requiem)," Op. 45 by Johannes Brahms.
Brahms by Braum's: A German Requiem and Ice Cream
It is the composer's longest work, combining orchestra, choir and two soloists.
The performance was richly textured, the chorus and the orchestra combining smoothly in all of the seven movements.
The orchestration leans a little heavily on the brass at times, and the two soloists were occasionally overshadowed by the chorus.
Nonetheless, the work as a whole was well performed and moving.
This work demands excellence from all performers; "A German Requiem" creates an environment of comfort in the delicately structured interaction of chorus and orchestra.
The first half, with a text focus on lamentation, balances against the comfort and hope offered in the last half.
Brahms uses rich, fugal elements and repetitive themes, balancing the composition in the first half against the second, even as he balances the orchestration of the voices with the orchestration of the instruments. There are no solo movements; the soloists are supported and answered by the chorus in both baritone movements (3 and 6) as well as in movement 5, the only soprano movement.
Canterbury Choral Society gave us a beautifully performed choral experience.
Soloists Terrance Brown, baritone, and soprano Esther Jane Hardenbergh were late additions; the original soloists mentioned in the program both had to cancel due to illness.
Brown's rich voice was occasionally lost in the choir. This is partly the composer's doing, and weaves the soloist into the choir rather than making the choir a backup ensemble.
One does want to be able to hear the solo line in combination with the choir, and that can be difficult in the lower registers.
By contrast, Hardenbergh's lines were, for the most part, almost stridently apparent.
The orchestral writing of "A German Requiem" is some of the most carefully crafted of Brahms' many works; it's a favorite with the instrumentalists as well as with singers.

Gustave Flaubert
Many of the techniques Flaubert used for descriptive purposes are cinematic in their quality, such as the flashing back and forth between the Prefect's speech and Rodolphe's flirting at the Agricultural Show. During the wild coach ride taken by Emma and Leon through the suburbs of Rouen, and at other points, the reader is made to view events from the outside. This adds to the air of reality, and it makes it necessary for the reader to call upon his own experiences to assist in understanding the experiences of the characters. The reader, in a sense, is made to participate with them. In addition, Madame Bovary has a formal structure that adds to the aesthetic quality of the story. Its three parts are comparable, in their development, exposition, and denouement to the parts of a stage play, and the entire movement of the novel shows a theatrical sense of the dramatic.

Girls' Night Out
I caught a whiff of familiar perfume on Friday afternoon as I walked back to my flat from the station. I breathed it in and allowed it to tease the memory from my mind, calling me to go back to that place where we were. "Nina" I whispered back to it.
Before it all, Chianti was just a wine and Chopin was only music. Candlelight and soft lighting were associated with relaxing evenings spent on my own in meditation. Now they are all bound together along with that mesmerising scent and they all mean only one thing to me Nina.
I remember how we got onto the topic we were in the restaurant discussing new experiences, careers, moving to America and then I found myself apologising for the things I had said to her at the party while I was drunk.
"You probably think I am so weird," I say, looking at my fettuccini in sun dried tomato and not at her. "I mean, I didn't intend to come onto you like that."
"I must admit I was flattered," she says, "But it's okay I understand you weren't being yourself."
I blush. Relief. I look up at her and she is taking a sip of the Chianti. Then I ask what I have wanted to ask since that moment when I realised I felt more than friendship towards her. "So, have you ever thought about it?"
"What?" she says, her green eyes wide, searching. Then comprehension. "With you?"
"I mean," I stumble here, recover quickly, "With another woman." God! It must be the wine that's got me saying this.
The conversation takes a turn and we go down a road we never would have thought of travelling before. "I always found you attractive," one of us says. "I had a secret crush on you when we were in France," says the other. We whisper, but I think that the people next to us heard anyway. The restaurant suddenly feels too small, the tables too close together. We have our heads bowed towards each other, talking as though we were spies.
"Could I get you some dessert? Coffee?" We didn't even see the waiter creep up on us. When I look at her, the expression I see on her face is like the one I feel on mine.
"Um… no," she says. "The bill, please."
I go into the ladies room to freshen up. Interesting evening, I think. Bizarre conversation. I emerge from the stall and there she is waiting for me. She crooks her finger, beckons me into the stall behind her and locks the door.
I press her up against the cold wall, kissing her hungrily, aggressively. I pull up her blouse and I brush across her cleavage and along the sides of her breasts. I can feel the firmness through the fabric of her bra. I pull away, her eyes are closed and her dark eyelashes stand out in contrast to her pale skin. Then I am kissing her again, tugging at her skirt, wanting to touch her. I trail my fingers across the lace that covers her, tease her by dipping my finger just inside her panties, but not quite touching where she wants me to. She gasps and moans ever so softly. I kiss her harder to make her quiet, biting her lip and then moving my lips to her neck and I nip her there.
"We'd better go," I whisper, "We can't be in here forever."
"Right," she whispers back and we leave the stall, trying to look nonchalant as we pass two other women standing at the basin.
"Are you still feeling ill?" I ask, maybe a bit too loudly, trying to cover.
"Better get a cab home," she says as we wash up, dry our hands and then leave quickly. I don't dare look over at the other women I am convinced they heard us.
Outside the questions are strange "Who is at your place?"
"No one maybe Christine. What time is Debbie home?"
"Don't know."
"Give her a call."
I nod, reach for my mobile phone and punch in my home number my sister is staying in our flat until she gets her own place. My hands feel numb; Nina looks up when I say, "Hi, Debs." I tell her I won't be home until very late. Looks like we'll have to suffer the scrutiny of Nina's flatmate Chris.
She flags a cab down for us on The Strand.
We talk about irrelevant things at the back of the cab. I reach for her hand and hold it in mine. I smile to myself when I realise that I am not wearing the necklace that Neil had given me when he first asked me to move in with him. It's as though I knew. Thank God he's away on business.
I draw lazy circles with my fingertips on her wrist. My touch thrills her she loses her thoughts and stops talking, head resting against the seat. I stop and she continues talking until I touch her again and her voice trails off. I delight in my sweet torture of her, enjoying the expressions that cross over her face each time I touch her wrist or the palm of her hand.
We step into her house, peep into the lounge. Chris is engrossed in something on TV. "Hi Chris," I say.
"Giulia," she says. Didn't even look away from the TV.
Nina locks the door of her room and lights a few candles. She smiles at me shyly and puts on the music. I sit on her bed watching her. I feel so strange. But the sensation quickly drifts away when Nina comes to sit beside me on the bed.
"Chopin," I say, hoping I sound convincingly relaxed. "Beautiful. I always liked classical music. Didn't know you liked…"
"You talk too much," she says, mercifully taking control away from me, and ends my babbling with a kiss that is sweet and tender. I feel myself falling into her, my arms wrapped around her body. My hands work quickly on her blouse, are slowed in a struggle with the hook on her bra and then they are rewarded as I feel her breasts brush my open palms.
I can't believe this is happening, that I am doing this. "You're beautiful," I say to her. "I don't think you realise how beautiful you are."
"You sound like a soap opera," she retorts. I laugh, she does too. Then there is a long silent moment as we look at each other knowing what is going to happen next.
I stand up and undress myself while she watches me. It turns me on to think that she is not seeing me as a friend, but as a lover, as someone who will bring her pleasure. I pull her free from her skirt and remaining underwear and we kiss again, getting tangled with each other.
The candlelight warms her body and I have to kiss her in every place that the soft light touches. She watches as I trace a wet figure of eight around her nipples and down around the sides of her breasts. She sighs softly and I know I am doing something good.
I am hungry for her, and my mouth has a spirit of its own, my tongue guides my lips over every inch of her between her breasts, down her belly to her clitoris - and when she moans, I hear my name, "Giulia," come softly from her mouth. I move my tongue down over her thighs, teasing. "Giulia," she sighs, "Don't stop… don't stop." Her fingers brush lightly through my hair and that lets me know what she wants. I plunge my tongue into her wetness and then gently suck her clitoris.
It happens in slow motion, we move together and become sensual shadows on the wall. We become hands, lips, tongues, thrown against the wall, larger than life. I watch her face while my hands do the work and she moves her hips in rhythm with my own strokes. Her black hair is fanned out against the cover on her narrow bed, her eyes are closed, lips parted only a fraction she is like a vision. She throws her head back, her hair trailing a wave across the covers. Her face fascinates me, how it changes from desire to rapture as she climaxes against my hand.
I brush her fringe from her face. Her skin is soft and warm and I find myself feeling secretly possessive of her. I twist a tuft of her hair around and around my fingers, and I feel somehow changed by what has happened. She looks up at me and I can see that she is tired.
"What about you?" she asks.
"Next time," I say. I inhale her perfume from the cleft between her breasts and nuzzle her neck. Optimistic of me to think there'd be a next time.
There isn't.
We meet for lunch the following day. We're too embarrassed to talk about the night before and I feel lost. My feelings are so confused. I love Neil. I want Nina. Am I gay? Am I straight? I know Nina is definitely straight.
"I like blokes," she says, and that's how we break into the subject. "You and me it was great, but it can't happen again. I value your friendship too much. This would just get in the way. And there's Neil."
I say, "Okay." She looks at me knowingly. "I understand. You're right." I smile. It did happen! I want to say. It did happen and it was special. I want more. I want to be with you again and touch you again. But I say nothing. She shows me photographs from her recent holiday in Italy.
We hug before she leaves, before she gets into the cab to go back to work. I hang onto her for just a moment too long and let go of her reluctantly. She waves from the back of the cab and I go back to my office, feeling lonely, isolated and hurt.
The breeze picked up and the smell of her perfume disappeared with it. I glanced at my watch and walked on, back to my flat. The phone was ringing as I entered and I made a mad dash to get to it before the answering machine did. I picked up the phone, heard her voice and there it all was again, "Nina," I said, thinking of Chianti and Chopin and her perfume.

Today, September 16, is my 7 year anniversary as a published author!
On September 16, 2008, Bound by Deception released. It has the distinction of being my first published book, though Object of His Desire was the first M/M book I ever wrote and my first attempt at writing a novella. It was simply of function of publisher timelines that caused Bound by Deception to be my first published book.
Still, that's not to take away from Oliver and Vincent's achievement. They get to have a #1 next to their names. I loved writing that book, and I still love it. The angst, the smex, the kink, oh my!
When I submitted Bound by Deception to Loose Id, I crossed my fingers and hoped and prayed they'd like my story. I stalked my inbox like an author possessed, and there was much flailing about when I received an offer to publish the book.
A lot has happened in 7 years. I've written 18 books and 4 freebie short stories. I have books in ebook, print and audio formats and in foreign languages. I've learned a lot about the publishing world and have grown a ton as an author. I also know what a dangling modifier is now.
Some things haven't changed. I still stalk my inbox when I have a proposal out to a publisher. I still fret that I'll get a "Really? This is crud." reply. There is still much flailing when a publisher tells me that yes, they'd like to publish my story. And I still get ridiculously excited on new book release day.
And something else hasn't changed - my goal is to share my stories. I started writing because I wanted to read angsty, smexy Regency M/M romances and I couldn't find them. So I wrote the type of stories I wanted to read. When I decided to publish, my goal shifted to sharing those stories with others. And that's still my goal to this day.
Enough about me. To celebrate my anniversary (which is still about me, but let's overlook that), I'm holding a giveaway for winner's choice of one of my available books. Here are the giveaway details:
- 2 winners chosen at random
- Winner chooses which book they'd like
- Format: Print or ebook (epub, mobi or pdf format). Winner's choice. If you choose print and you win, I'll send you an email to request your snail mail address.
- Giveaway open to U.S. and International entrants
- To enter: Leave a comment on this post (either here or with the post on Goodreads, as it will cross-post) with your email address or send me an email at ava @ avamarch (dot) com to enter. Include you preferred title and format.
- Giveaway open until September 30th, 2015, midnight EST.
Print options include: English language editions of All In with the Duke, Sharp Love, O Come All Ye Kinky, The Bound Series.
Standard giveaway rules apply. Must be at least 18 yrs of age to enter. 2 winners chosen at random by yours truly. One entry allowed per person. Void where prohibited. No purchase necessary to enter. Yours truly will post the names of the winners by October 2nd, midnight EST, on this blog post. I'll also send the winners an email to let them know they've won. Winners have until October 7th, 2015 to respond to the email with their format & book of choice. Blah, blah, blah, and whatever else I forgot to include here.
The randomizer did its work, and the winners are....Viv and Juliana!!
An email has been sent to each to let them know of their lucky winner status. Thanks so much to everyone who entered either here or via email, and big thank-you for your congratulations and generous comments. You've made me smile and feel very fortunate to have people who enjoy reading my books. :)

Does Scapy bypass Dummynet (IPFW in general)?
It really looks like it does. I'm adding a large extra delay to each outgoing and incoming packet, and everything slows down apart from packets sent with Scapy.
$ ipfw add pipe 1 from any to any
$ ipfw pipe 1 config delay 500ms
$ ping www.google.com
PING www.l.google.com (184.108.40.206) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from par03s02-in-f18.1e100.net (126.96.36.199): icmp_req=1 ttl=54 time=1011 ms
64 bytes from par03s02-in-f18.1e100.net (188.8.131.52): icmp_req=2 ttl=54 time=1010 ms
So it seems OK. But as soon as I send packets with Scapy, here's what happens:
>>> from scapy.all import *
>>> p = IP(dst="www.google.com", ttl=1) / TCP(sport=222, dport=2999)
>>> ans,unans = sr(p*3)
>>> ans[0][1].time - ans[0][0].sent_time
0.0002701282501220703 #usual value for such RTT
Is there any way to force it to pass through dummynet?
EDIT If only I had another machine at my disposal, I could use dummynet there and direct all my traffic to it, before it gets into the Internet. I would prefer to do everything locally, though.

Swedish PastoratEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
Back to Sweden Portal Page►
The pastorat, sometimes called prästgäll is made up of one, two, or more parishes (församling) depending on the circumstances. The parish that the pastor lives in is called the mother parish or moderförsamling. The other parish(es) is called the annex parish or annexförsamling. Sometimes the parish records of the whole pastorat would be kept in one book, other times there is a separate book for each parish.
While you are searching for your ancestors in the parish records, you should find out:
- If you are working in the moderförsamling or an annexförsamling.
- If you are working in an annexförsamling and cannot find your people, check the records of the moderförsamling.
- If you cannot find your people in the records of the moderförsamling, check the records of the annexförsamling.

FY 2013-2015 Summary of Grant Awards
This report, which provides an in-depth look at our first three years of grant-making, summarizes findings from an analysis of select data from projects funded during fiscal years (FY) 2013 -2015. It combines both quantitative data about planned activities derived from coding used during the proposal review process and qualitative stories about completed activities primarily from grantee progress reports.
The Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act tasked USDA with supporting farm to school efforts through grants, training, technical assistance, and research. To date, the USDA Farm to School Grant Program has funded 221 farm to school projects, totaling $15.1 million. We're pleased to support these programs, and feel confident the grantees whom we fund are establishing models that can be emulated and built upon by districts nationwide.
New Resources
Procuring Local Foods for Child Nutrition Programs
Our revised local procurement guide is now available and can help you decide how to buy local for your program.
The guide covers procurement basics, defining local, where to find local products, and the variety of ways schools can purchase locally in accordance with regulations. This revision incorporates information about micro-purchases, buying local foods for child care and summer meal programs and more real-world examples. Check out the updated guide for sample solicitation language, detailed geographic preference examples and helpful resources.
Traditional Foods in Child Nutrition Programs
American Indian communities have a rich history of eating native, local foods and a strong interest in serving these traditional foods through federal Child Nutrition Programs (CNPs). In a new memo, Child Nutrition Programs and Traditional Foods, USDA reinforces that many traditional foods can contribute towards reimbursable meals in CNPs. While USDA's Food Buying Guide is an important tool for school food authorities, it doesn't contain an exhaustive list of traditional foods; the new memo is an important supplement to help assist tribal communities.
For additional guidance concerning this memo, please reach out to your regional Farm to School Regional Lead or USDA's Office of Tribal Relations.
Growing Roots in Farm to School Webinar Series
Recordings of all 11 webinars in our 2015 Growing Roots series are available online. Click here to watch, and build your farm to school skills, topic by topic!
We're Here to Help!
The USDA Farm to School Program is operated by the Department's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), which has seven regional offices around the country; in each is a Farm to School Regional Lead who is available to provide farm to school related support to state agencies and other entities in their region. A list of regions, along with the names and contact information for regional and national USDA Farm to School Program staff, can be found here.

I was able to negotiate salary to a 20% increase since I already had offers with competitors. During the first phone interview I understood things such as how fast the sector of the company I am going to, it grew over 500% in the last four years. That is always a great thing when jumping into a company, I learned that the volume of customers is so vast the the opportunities are endless.

I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at R+L Carriers (Sauget, IL).
Several of us drivers at Conway Central were informed by a co worker that R+L was opening a new terminal in Sauget Il. We contacted the company and were told when to come and fill out applications. The application was straightforward, at that time the requirements were a minimum of three years safe driving experience and a CDL with Hazmat endorsement. Two weeks later four out of five were called back, (one guy had just had a heart attack). The interview was easy and cordial, just rehashing my career to make sure everything matched the application. When I asked when we would take a road test the interviewer said You've been driving for ten years with no accidents I think we are OK unless you really want to go for a drive.

Teachers and students offered "some of the most heartfelt online tributes" at the passing of Apple co-founder and innovator Steve Jobs. The Mac's graphical interface takes well-deserved credit for helping to convince educators in the 1980s to introduce computers in the classroom, and to younger and younger students. Today, schools and teachers "integrating technology" into learning has become synonymous with improving student achievement.
The Case of Carnegie Learning's Software
That technology can make a difference in students' academic performance is not just assumed. You could say there is a bit of a blind faith that computers, software and the like will, just by using them, raise test scores. But two federal reviews of the flagship math-teaching software, Cognitive Tutor, of Carnegie Learning, have shown that using it had "no discernible effects" on the standardized test scores of high school students. The company's promotional literature suggests otherwise:
…the gold standard of education research is a field trial in which similar groups of students are randomly assigned to classes where one uses the curriculum and the other does not.
The Carnegie Web site lists five such trials and says they all show positive results for Cognitive Tutor.
Three of these studies, however, were rejected by the [Education Department's] What Works Clearinghouse, for flaws in their design; in a fourth, the clearinghouse identified a problem with part of the study — the part that purported to show benefits. One of the rejected studies had found that users of Cognitive Tutor in 10 Miami high schools scored better on Florida state exams than a control group, but the clearinghouse found that the students being compared were not equivalent.
Carnegie Learning was founded in 1998 by cognitive and computer scientists at Carnegie Mellon University along with math teachers. But in August, it was acquired by the Apollo Group, the parent company of the 400,000 student for-profit University of Phoenix. Carnegie Learning's website notes the acquisition with a link to a September 26th article on The Atlantic by Clayton Christensen, Harvard Business School Professor and "world-renowned innovation guru," and Henry Eyring, Advancement Vice President and educational strategist at BYU‐Idaho.
Christensen and Eyring unquestioningly laud the educational value of Carnegie Learning's math tutorials which will "prove a boon to the hundreds of thousands of University of Phoenix students who take math courses in almost all of its programs of study." Such online learning is something that many traditional universities and colleges are not, to their detriment, investing in. Christensen and Eyring claim numerous benefits for a mix of online and face-to-face learning:
…students will spend less time in the classroom, in favor of learning through personalized tutorials such as those produced by Carnegie Learning. They will also learn more from one another, through the application of social media technologies to defined learning objectives. Students who prepare for class via these technologies have much better learning experiences when they get to the classroom.
Not mentioned are teachers; students instead receive instruction through the software tutorials and, using more technology (social media), each other.
Christensen and Eyring do not spell out the evidence or research on what they are basing these statements.

I say no, no, NO!! Unless you want to raise robots....we are evolving towards "star wars"!!!! except for the few of us that will remain with the earth and in our own communities....then our children don't need to succumb to that world.....and have a chance to live many more years!!!!!
This article asks good questions. It's worth looking for some answers.
It is pointless if what you learn is indoctrination. Right now we are being indoctrinated and that amounts to being dumbed down. The only worthwhile lessons are those that reflect the analytical truth and allows the student to think for themselves. Exams are for slaves and serfs. The Mortar boards on students heads are just symbols of an education system that is dominated by the Elite Illuminati who intend to kill us all anyway when and how it suits them.
Thanks for the article.
A similar debate is going on in the UK but the issue here is that "computer science" has been dumbed down. You now learn how to use Excel and Powerpoint instead of machine code and BASIC coding. In the 80's you had a generation of people who could code and use the same logic in other forms of problem solving. Heck, it even helped me in orbital mechanics in my Aerospace degree.
Teaching kids how to use software my gran could use isn't benefiting them at all, as the software will have changed by the time they get a job anyway. School is about developing social skills and learning the fundamental basics of English and Math(s). If the 10 yo child wants to sit in front of a computer let him/her do it at home!
Oh BTW, a person's intelligence cannot be measured on how quickly they can recite something off Google, but on how they retain that knowledge and the ability of adapting and using that knowledge in their own lives. People seem to be less able to make common sense judgements these days and are more likely to go along with "what the computer says" which I personally find disturbing.
Have you ever seen the textbooks for high school math? They have paid advertizements, sports, and junk culture to sell soft drinks, rap music, and McDonald's. They are more corporate indoctrination than mathematics and they replace the textbooks in college elmost every year at great expense to students.
It probably adds fun but also wastes time and I'm not very positive that it helps to improve learning/teaching.
Thanks for the article.
I wrote a letter to my grandson recently and he called me to let me know he had trouble reading it because I wrote in cursive. He is a very smart young man often making the Principles list but had a problem reading cursive and he said they never write in cursive in school anymore.
I also find fault with what they teach in the first couple of years in school because they try to teach too much too fast. The foundation of all learning is still and will always be reading, writing and math, without these things nothing else is possible. Finland has one of the TOP school systems in the world and we should be emulating it.
Technology is great and has its place but we should never turn our children over to a computer, they deserve better from us.
When I see all these computers in the classroom, even though I am on one now, I think of Orwell and the 1984 we thought we escaped.

Re: On mobile home title, but not on loan?
Ah, I thought you were in the process of obtaining a new mortgage. I misunderstood. Either the mobile home loan wasn't in default at that time, or perhaps Vanderbilt really lost track of you in the transfer process. However, nothing that you have written indicates that you are officially and legally released from that debt obligation. I would now be concerned about any liens against your current home stemming from the mobile home debt. This is not something to be passive about. Have you spoken with your ex-girlfriend about what's going on?

6 Reviews
Seven of us have just returned from a stay at this beautiful home. We were welcomed by Brian's son on arrival and we were truly impressed with the house and location. The property is its own little Oasis and between us we could not have asked for more.
We are certain we shall return in the future.
Many thanks for the wonderful hospitality,
Brian and Eileen met us at their cottage at the agreed time and gave us the grand tour. They were kind enough to leave a well stocked pantry, clear instructions on how to use the house's facilities, plenty of firewood and turf, and most importantly a few cans of Guinness! Brian also gave us great recommendations for places to hear traditional Irish music in local pubs and the Coleman Centre. He even left us his guitar and bodhran when he found out we played music.
The house itself is pretty amazing - the original cottage is cozy and charming while the modern addition is spacious and light-filled; both sections are tastefully decorated with interesting art and photography, much of it related to music. With 2 full kitchens, abundant bathrooms and several living and sleeping spaces, it was perfect for our large group of 9 adults and 3 toddlers. Everything was well kept and clean, and the house was stocked with abundant linens and towels.
Out of 12 days in Ireland, the 4 days we spent in Sligo were the best by far. We would love to stay in Brian and Eileen's house again on our next trip to Ireland, and are looking forward to it!
From the moment we walked into your house we felt very comfortable. The combination of a modern area with the flavor of the traditional architecture is a perfect match. Everything was spotless and the welcome from the hosts a delight. Beautiful flowers, delicious desserts to regain strength form the trip and endless advice and materials to guide us more easily in the area. We were lucky also to enjoy Sligo's Music Festival, which was truly wonderful.
The house is perfectly located: far from the madding crowd, in the middle of the gorgeous Irish countryside, but very close access to Sligo and Donegal (the wild atlantic way).
Friendly people, idyllic setting, super comfortable house ... A real success!
Thank you for being so endearing!
We were greeted by Brian and Eileen at their lovely home, with fresh flowers, Guinness, and home baked tea bread and brown bread and butter!! A very warm welcome to Gurteen, and their wonderful house. If we had not been so tired after our flight, we would have loved to get to know them a bit better. They left a binder that had lots of information about places to visit in the area, and we made good use of it. There was turf to make a fire , and Brian even brought a bbq grill and left charcoal for us- as my husband likes to bbq.Very thoughtful hosts!
Brian was a gracious host and had all the essentials for us on arrival. The house was lovely and very suitable for our special family reunion. The spacious living room/dining room/ kitchen wiht its lovely stove and comfy sofas was relaxing and spacious enought for 7 adults and 2 children. We enjoyed our stay very much and would love to return someday!
We had a fabulous time at this lovely spacious Irish Cottage. It is very thoughtfully decorated and comfortable. A great combination of traditional Irish cottage and modern conveniences. Perfect for family get togethers! We had a warm welcome from our attentive host Brian. He gave us lots of information about the cottage and surrounding areas. The location is a typical rural Irish setting. It is very quiet and peaceful. While not in the heart of the holiday destinations of the area, it is perfect location for visiting northern Connaught. As natives of Mayo we found many hidden gems and surprises in the area and really enjoyed our stay. We will be back!
About the Host, Brian
We are from Dublin, both retired, travel a lot. We are interested in folk music, sing a bit and play badly. Before retiring we both had careers in the public health service. Other interests include soccer(thats me) and we do some hill walking including some time hiking in Shenandoah National Park. Places visited include most of Europe, Israel, Tunisia, Brazil, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, USA and Australia.

|Reviews for Pinch Hitter
| praeceps29 chapter 1 . 9/23/2014
ranma and akane is the worst paring in manga or anime ever she is a complete bitch all the fiancees are thats the best reason for a crossover so ranma doesnt have to deal with them
| Aceina chapter 5 . 9/8/2014
good chapter and dont be hard on your self your writing is great
| Ki Ai Sky chapter 5 . 8/27/2014
I'm so happy to see that you have updated this incredibly creative and intriguing story! This is such a well thought out Sailor Moon/Ranma piece and I am eagerly awaiting the next installment.
I am very pleased with the pairings you have chosen, they're not what I would have expected, but I really do like them. And I like how the friendships between the Nerima guys has progressed from just a rivalry toward a true friendship. They know each other's strengths and can really understand what it's like to be in one another's shoes.
I guess it's going to be quite a bit of time before we find out exactly what Queen Serenity had planned for Ranma and Usagi. Also! So happy that the major cannon pairings weren't altered. Usagi and Mamoru as well as Ranma and Akane are very important pairings and I always get a little twinge of disappointment when Ranma and Usagi hook up.
Your wit is enjoyable and your writing is fantastic. Keep up the amazing work!
| GeshronTyler chapter 5 . 8/23/2014
Wow, I rember this, it's been quite some time since I'd looked this story over. Thanks for the time and effort in updating this story. Some interesting things going on in the background, as well as in the distant pass. Hope to read more in the not too distsnt future.
| Tibricel Tibby chapter 5 . 8/14/2014
I am so very happy you are still publishing this story and look forward to the next chapter. Don't be so hard on yourself, nothing major wrong. I think there might have been one or words that were out of place in a sentence but nothing to worry about to harshly.
I hope all is well and you are able to update soon as I really am enjoying this story it's fantastic. Hope for more soon..
| ERay316 chapter 5 . 8/12/2014
Don't be so critical of your writing: I'm enjoying this story a lot, and would like to read more!
| King Tarol chapter 5 . 8/8/2014
In this chapter, you say that you're not feeling confident? Well, you should feel a lot more confident, because you're good at this.
You took the characters of Ranma 1/2 and freed them from the sociopathic comedy that it became, and brought them forward into a new, realistic age. I could definitely see them all becoming the type of people that you characterized here, given the circumstances that you presented them with. There's isn't even excessive melodrama, though I think the scene with Ranma meeting Ryouga might be getting close.
Still, a strong chapter in a good story. I thought the pace was almost too fast throughout the story, but it still somehow seems to fit. It might have something to do with how densely packed your story is with personality and character development.
Keep up the good work, and don't psych yourself out of writing. Your skill is a rare thing in writing.
| Laira Evans chapter 4 . 8/6/2014
Nm... my sense of humor was damaged by lack of sleep. I get it now.
| Laira Evans chapter 5 . 8/6/2014
Should I know the reference in the last line of chapter 5?
| Dumbledork chapter 5 . 8/6/2014
That was a lot of fun once again. Can't wait for more.
| khammel chapter 5 . 8/6/2014
Researched 'SailorJerry'. Looks like the premier American tattoo artist for decades. And also a brand that uses his name now. So Setsuna might have a hangover, or a really cool tattoo. Or both.
Good development of the Ranma-Sailor Senshi relationship. Not at all surprised at who got angriest first, but quickly evolved into Ranma's advocate.
Glad Akane was brought into the main storyline at last. It will be interesting to see how Akane reacts to whatever revelations Ranma feels confident enough to share. You really have a good handle on their relationship here. They are both guarded and closed, but really love... and need... each other.
Aki's reaction to her roomie's familiarity with a (really cute) girl might be fun here too.
Great chapter in general, here's hoping Ranma could work at a decent place someday. All 'she' ever seems to work at are seedy dives in fanfiction.
Thanks for continuing this story, I hope your muse smiles on you in the future. You have a wonderful gift, here's hoping you never doubt it again.
| Sora with an S chapter 5 . 8/5/2014
"Sailor Jerry?"
I sense much mocking in the future
| Kriss1989 chapter 5 . 8/5/2014
"Curse you delicious, delicious alcohol. Still, I'm sure everything was fine without me."
*comes back to chaos*
"Oh come on, I can't even take a week off without this shit happening! I've been on duty for millennia guys, I deserve a vacation!"
| anon chapter 5 . 8/5/2014
as always, great content, I hope to see more of akane, I hope i just dont have to wait another year to get the heartwarming scene that's probably on the way.
| Compucles chapter 5 . 8/4/2014
Yay, finally a new chapter! This is my favorite actively running fuku fic and my second favorite actively running Ranma / Sailor Moon crossover after "The Dark Lords Ascendent."
Poor Ranma, not having a good week at all, especially since she's gotta be hurting for cash after losing her job and getting her wallet stolen (and presumably destroyed after Daikokuten died). Hopefully, Akane can help her feel better, as it's about time she played a decent role in the story. I wonder how she'll explain Ranma to Aki, though.
I like what you did with Ranma's ki/magic combo attack. I did something similar in my own version of a semi-farcical fuku fic (Ranma and Akane: The One True Couple - Chapter 4 - Sailor Wrecking Crew) by having Ranma combine "Moon Tiara Action" with "Moko Takabisha" to create "Moko Takabisha Revised: Tsuki Takabisha" (Domineering Moon). I invite you to check it out and tell me what you think.
Like you said, the setup is finally complete with most of the Senshi and Nerimian martial artists now on the same page. I look forward to how everyone works together now.
By the way, have you seen "Sailor Moon: Crystal?" It's a reboot of the animé that's doing its best to be more true to the manga (manga character designs, absence of filler, manga plot points, etc.). The third episode came out yesterday and introduced Sailor Mars. There was one weird part where Usagi seemed to develop an instant lesbian crush on Rei, and Tuxedo Mask has been even more useless so far than he usually is, but I'm quite enjoying it.
